Netflix Series: Ju On (Origins)
After my last blog post, I was asked to watch The Social Dilemma on Netflix. I was told it would show how social media was influencing us.
Teenage Bounty Hunters Netflix It’s like Derry Girls meets the Stephanie Plum novels and just as fun. I originally saw this on the excellent TV Fanatic Blog and had to give it a go. I’m glad I saw the review first because the beginning was a little bumpy but in the end I speed through […]
Derry Girls Meets Stephanie Plum
Last summer, I was so captivated by Stephen Dorff’s performance in one of the best television dramas of all-time (HBO’s True Detective, Season 3) that I wanted to see more of his work in film. In the horror column, I found two I hadn’t seen before: FearDotCom (2002) and The Gate (1987). FearDotCom (2002) Viewings […]

When the news broke on March 29th, 2019 that Agnès Varda had passed away at age 90 from cancer, the film world mourned, but I did not. I recognized the name of course, but had I seen any of her films? As it turned out, actually yes. About 18 months prior, I had enjoyed an […]

‘The Boys in the Band’ Is a Remake That Stands on Its Own
I recommend watching “My Octopus Teacher” on Netflix. It is the best wildlife documentary I have ever seen. It’s an amazing 85-minute film and quite the departure from the shoot ’em ups of fiction and real life going on.
A cardiothoracic surgeon, Choi Yeon-kyung, from modern day Seoul meets the infamous acupuncturist, Heo Im, from 400 years ago, Joseon, when he travels through time…… Themes 1) oriental and western medicine: At first, Choi was very against oriental medicine despite the fact that her own grandfather was a practitioner of […]
Netflix Series: Live Up To Your Name
For those who read or watched the original “The One Who Flew Over The Cuckoo’s N’est”, they would remember the infamous and cruel nurse, Ratched, at the ward for the mentally unstable. This series told the story of how Mildred Ratched came to be a nurse at the Lucia State Hospital […]
Unsurprisingly, Netflix has all sorts of Halloween treats for the month of October. The Haunting of Bly Manor, though, which drops on October 9th, and is based on the classic horror novella, The Turn of the Screw, by Henry James, is one offering I’m eagerly looking forward to, especially after seeing this trailer.
Not a movie today, but a TV series and equally as good. We recently watched Godless (2017) a one off series on Netflix consisting of 7 brilliant episodes and no second series, so a nice one to just enjoy with a beginning a middle and an end. The plot: (No spoilers as this one is […]
Hello everyone! Welcome to yet another TV Tuesday! This week I’m going to be talking all about season two of The Umbrella Academy.

But at the top of my list is their adaptation of Daphne du Maurier’s Rebecca, which is one of my favorite classic […]

Film Review – The Devil All the Time (2020)
I finished Schitt’s Creek a few days ago and now every time I open Netflix I have serious withdrawals because it makes me so sad that theres no more Schitt’s Creek to watch. Created by Dan and Eugene Levy, Schitt’s Creek follows the life of the Rose family thrown into chaos after losing basically everything. […]
Schitt’s Creek Series Finale: Happy Ending.
Lucifer I have never been one for watching much TV, but this recovery sent me to the couch (where Alexa and my remote control became my best friends). Caught a glimpse of this original series from Netflix called Lucifer. Without giving anything away, the series is about the Devil (bored with his responsibilites in hell) […]
Once upon a time in 2011 I was in the mood to follow a TV show on CBS, of all channels — Person of Interest, the latest project from Jonathan Nolan, best known for writing or co-writing many of his brother Christopher’s films. The first seven episodes were one part above-average hard-boiled CBS procedural, one […]
